The Winnipesaukee Rowing Club welcomed crew teams from 25 different schools and clubs across New England and the mid-Atlantic states, who came to compete in the second annual Meredith Bay Regetta, Beth Euiler, a member of the Winnipesaukee Rowing Club said.

The regatta started last year. It was organized by the rowing club and its primary sponsor, the Meredith Kiwanis Club. The event was such a success last year — drawing 380 participants even though it rained all day — that the Winnipesaukee Rowing Club decided it will be an annual event, Euiler said.

This year, more than 400 people participated in rowing races which had categories for single rowers, four-person and eight-person crew teams.
